[0032] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended only to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a battery housing assembly for installing battery cells.

[0034] The battery housing assembly includes a housing body 1, a first plastic part 2, and a second plastic part 3. The housing body 1 has a mounting wall 11, which is provided with a tab through-hole 111 connecting the inside and outside of the housing body 1. The battery cell is disposed within the housing body 1. The first plastic part 2 covers the outer wall of the mounting wall 11, and the second plastic part 3 covers the inner wall of the mounting wall 11. Thus, the first plastic part 2 and the second plastic part 3 can insulate and protect both sides of the mounting wall 11 and the tab through-hole 111. Optionally, a mounting groove 114 is provided on the outer wall of the mounting wall 11. The tab through-hole 111 is connected to the mounting groove 114, and the first plastic part 2 is embedded in the mounting groove 114, thereby rationally utilizing the space.

[0035] Among them, the second plastic part 3 is a flat plate structure, and the tabs of the battery cell can pass through the first plastic part 2, the second plastic part 3, and the tab through-holes 111 to the outside, so that the interior of the shell body 1 only has the flat plate-shaped second plastic part 3 with a smaller thickness, and the related components connected to the tabs of the battery cell are all located outside the shell body 1. Therefore, it occupies a smaller space inside the shell body 1, which can improve the space utilization rate inside the shell body 1. The first plastic part 2 and the second plastic part 3 can be fixedly connected by hot melting or hot riveting through the tab through-holes 111, thereby achieving the installation and fixation of the first plastic part 2 and the second plastic part 3 on the shell body 1. This installation and fixation method does not increase the thickness of the second plastic part 3, which is beneficial to the utilization of the internal space of the shell body 1.

[0036] A hot melt column 31 is provided on one or both of the first plastic part 2 and the second plastic part 3. The hot melt column 31 can pass through the tab through-hole 111 and be hot-melted to the hot melt position 21 of the first plastic part 2 and / or the hot melt position 21 of the second plastic part 3, thereby achieving the fixation of the first plastic part 2 and the second plastic part 3 on the mounting shell wall 11. The hot melt column 31 passes through the tab through-hole 111 to connect the first plastic part 2 and the second plastic part 3, and can also avoid the need to open an additional opening for hot melt connection on the mounting shell wall 11. Specifically, the hot melt position 21 is a groove opened on the first plastic part 2 and / or the second plastic part 3 for matching with the hot melt column 31. Optionally, the first plastic part 2 and / or the second plastic part 3 is provided with an annular positioning protrusion, which can be embedded in the tab through-hole 111 to position the installation of the first plastic part 2 and / or the second plastic part 3, and the hot melt column 31 is provided on the annular positioning protrusion. The wall thickness of the first plastic part 2 at the hot melt position 21 and / or the wall thickness of the second plastic part 3 at the hot melt position 21 is greater than or equal to 0.03 mm, thereby ensuring the insulation performance of the first plastic part 2 and the second plastic part 3 at the hot melt position 21 .

[0037] Furthermore, the first plastic part 2 is a split structure or an integrated structure, and the second plastic part 3 is a split structure or an integrated structure. When the first plastic part 2 is a split structure and the second plastic part 3 is also a split structure, the split structure can easily disassemble and reassemble the first plastic part 2 and the second plastic part 3, so as to adjust the position according to actual needs and make rational use of space; when the first plastic part 2 is an integrated structure and the second plastic part 3 is also an integrated structure, the integrated structure makes the first plastic part 2 and the second plastic part 3 more integrated and coordinated in design, and fully insulates and protects the installation shell wall 11.

[0038] Furthermore, the tab through-hole 111 includes a positive pole through-hole, and at least one positive pole through-hole is provided, so that the mounting shell wall 11 only passes through the tab of the positive pole of the battery cell as required; or the tab through-hole 111 includes a negative pole through-hole, and at least one negative pole through-hole is provided, so that the mounting shell wall 11 only passes through the tab of the negative pole of the battery cell as required; or the tab through-hole 111 includes a positive pole through-hole and a negative pole through-hole, and at least one positive pole through-hole and a negative pole through-hole are provided, so that the mounting shell wall 11 can pass through the tabs of the positive and negative poles of the battery cell as required, thereby meeting actual layout requirements.

[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mounting shell wall 11 is further provided with a liquid injection port 113, which communicates with the inside and outside of the shell body 1 through the second plastic part 3. The liquid injection port 113 facilitates the injection of electrolyte into the battery cell. Optionally, the liquid injection port 113 can be provided on a side close to the positive electrode through-hole, or on a side close to the negative electrode through-hole, or between the positive and negative electrode through-holes.

[0040] Furthermore, the battery housing assembly also includes an explosion-proof valve 4. The mounting wall 11 is provided with an explosion-proof hole 112 that connects the inside and outside of the housing body 1. The explosion-proof valve 4 is provided on the outer wall of the mounting wall 11 and covers the explosion-proof hole 112. When the internal pressure of the housing body 1 increases abnormally, the explosion-proof valve 4 can automatically open to release the internal pressure, thereby preventing an explosion caused by the abnormal increase in the internal pressure of the housing body 1. Optionally, the explosion-proof valve 4 is provided with a notch on the side facing the mounting wall 11, or the explosion-proof valve 4 is provided with a notch on the side facing away from the mounting wall 11, so that the explosion-proof valve 4 can evenly withstand the pressure and crack along the notch, thereby improving the safety of the battery.

[0041] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the first plastic part 2 has a flange edge 22, and the width of the flange edge 22 ranges from 0 to 10 mm. By providing the flange edge 22, the installation of the first plastic part 2 on the mounting shell wall 11 can be facilitated, the structural strength of the first plastic part 2 can be improved, and the stability and reliability of the first plastic part 2 can be ensured. Moreover, the width range of the flange edge 22 is set to 0 to 10 mm, which can control the overall size of the first plastic part 2, control the weight of the first plastic part 2, reduce materials and costs, and avoid affecting the design of the shell body 1. Among them, the wall thickness of the mounting shell wall 11 is H. When the flange edge 22 of the first plastic part 2 is protruding outside the mounting shell wall 11, the distance between the upper surface of the flange edge 22 and the upper surface of the mounting shell wall 11 is in the range of 0 to H, thereby controlling the height of the first plastic part 2 and preventing the first plastic part 2 from being too high and being detrimental to the improvement of the battery volume utilization rate; when the flange edge 22 of the first plastic part 2 is recessed in the mounting shell wall 11, the distance between the upper surface of the flange edge 22 and the upper surface of the mounting shell wall 11 is in the range of 0 to 0.5H, thereby controlling the height of the first plastic part 2 and preventing the wall thickness of the mounting shell where the first plastic part 2 is mounted from being too thin and affecting the strength of the shell body 1.

[0042] This embodiment also provides a battery, including the battery shell assembly as described above, and the battery also includes a battery cell, which is arranged in the shell body 1. By using the battery shell assembly as described above, the battery has only a flat-plate-type second plastic part 3 with a smaller thickness inside the shell body 1, and the related devices connected to the tabs of the battery cell are all located outside the shell body 1, thereby improving the space utilization inside the shell body 1, and the first plastic part 2 and the second plastic part 3 can be fixedly connected by hot melting or hot riveting through the tab through-holes 111, thereby realizing the installation and fixation of the first plastic part 2 and the second plastic part 3 on the shell body 1. This installation and fixation method will not increase the thickness of the second plastic part 3, which is beneficial to the utilization of the internal space of the shell body 1.

[0043] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for the purpose of clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation methods here.
